Block Still Ringing (النسخة 2)

Verse

Curtains open at six, streetlight flickers on

Five of us standing where the porch won't move yet to dawn

Dust hanging from the steps like static off a mic

We talking 'bout the block, nothing that's gonna go quiet

Every name I call in here got a story we know

Corner store runs out of milk and you just grab a two

I don't think my mother knows how to use this watch

Time is measured in hours it takes for the block to get caught up

We talking 'bout the neighborhood when the only sound

Is the hum of the compressor outside, keeping ice down

Pre-Chorus

Sooner than we want the sun's gonna start burning

But before then we got a lot left to learning

Chorus

Block still ringing with the rhythm that I know

Same five still standing in front of what used to be our home

Block still ringing, holding every note that we made

We ain't lost, we just moving the spot to another shade

Verse

Sofia's running down the sidewalk like she's got wings

Got a pack of Juicy Cheetos and a smile that brings

Marcus caught the bus at five so he can make it home

Tariq's holding open the door for everybody that's still walking alone

I'm thinking 'bout tomorrow but I don't think it's real

Pre-Chorus

Sooner than we want the sun's gonna start burning

But before then we got a lot left to learning

Chorus

Block still ringing with the rhythm that I know

Same five still standing in front of what used to be our home

Block still ringing, holding every note that we made

We ain't lost, we just moving the spot to another shade

Bridge

I don't want this feeling to ever fade away

I want these streets to keep on humming all day

Maybe it's the way the light comes through the blinds

But I feel like tomorrow is already mine

What if every night felt this full and real?

Chorus

Block still ringing with the rhythm that I know

Same five still standing in front of what used to be our home

Block still ringing, holding every note that we made

We ain't lost, we just moving the spot to another shade
